We ditto all that has been said about couple's night. It was super! Great job, Becky & Mark - THANKS!!! It was so fun to be together with you all - WE LOVE YOU!This has been a very spiritual and physical draining week. Sunday was an awesome day for Jason and I, we were reminded of how blessed we are to live where we do, we are suppose to be here, we are lead by amazing men in our stake, who are lead by the Spirit and are very close to our Heavenly Father and the Savior. We were also reminded of the love our Father has for us and how he is very aware of our pain and all that we are going through, he is with us. He knows each one of us individually and our potential we have. Always be the best we can be. He loves us so much.Yesterday and today have been hard for me (Jen), I have been in a lot of pain and have relied on my sweetie for everything. I am so blessed to have him. He is truly amazing! He has been mom, dad, carpooler, helping in Jayden's class, launderer, housekeeper, you name it, and provider all in two days. He is leaving for Montana in the morning for work and will be gone a few days, so he is a little worried. However, I am doing a little better tonight, so I think we are good. The kids are usually very helpful. They have been very concerned about me and my health, they are awesome. I am so blessed!The kids are doing amazing in school, they love it and their teachers speak very highly of them. It sure is hard not to feel too proud. Jayden is in the mixed choir at school and also made it for audition choir. He decided the night before try-outs he was going to give it a try. He loves it now that he is in. He will have several performances and we'll let you know when, you are welcome to attend. He is still doing piano and looks forward to basketball starting soon.Maddie is sooooooooooo smart and is at the top of the kindergarten. She learns things so easily, except the numbers 6, 8 and 9. She's almost got them! She is at the beginning stages of reading, she can hardly wait to read all her books. She also is becoming quite the artist, Jayden comments that she draws better than him and she agrees. Even she tells us that she is better than everyone in her class. She is very confident in herself. She loves school so much, it just doesn't start soon enough, she has to wait all morning, but it is great for her and I to have some one-on-one time together, before she leaves at 12:15. Hope you are all doing well. We will see you all soon, Conference weekend?....Right?!?!Love you all!!!
